People who don't directly pay their energy bills to an energy company will be able to apply for £400 of help this month. It follows help of a similar amount being made to everyone else who pays bills late last year.
The Daily Record is reporting that the Government will launch its Energy Bills Support Scheme Alternative Funding application portal on Monday, February 27. There will also be a telephone helpline for people who are unclear about the scheme.
The one-off, non-repayable lump sum will be delivered by your local council. People who qualify include those who live in park homes, houseboats, off-grid and care homes, or those paying their energy bills as part of an all-inclusive rental agreement with their landlord.
